Thanks, and again thanks for the help in getting the right size tires on the rear. Still waiting on that PHB, order finally shows completed. So hopefully it will ship soon.

Ii realize this was a month ago, but if you are still out there would you mind sharing what sizes your wheels are, and what size tires and brand?
Awesome look, also curious about the ride-smooth? easy to balance? centering rings required? looks to be staggered sizes. Fender roll?

Thanks!

Fronts are 17x9.5 with 275-40ZR17 BFG g-Force Comp 2

Rears are 17x11 with 315-35ZR17 Nitto NT05

Rides good, balanced right easy enough, no centering rings or fender roll, and surprised me but a total lack of rubbing.

I'm assuming you are not lowered?

You are correct, stock height.

I run the exact same wheel and tire and it never rubbed at stock height, but did a bit when I lowered it. After an adjustable PHB, rolling the fenders, and beating the inner fender wells a little, it was fine. So just a FYI if you decide to lower it

I hadn't planned on lowering it. To me it rides and drives just fine how it sits, so haven't thought about messing with it.
